The time is nigh...

...and I am not talking about Christmas... ^^

I am talking about the release of my own miniature line. In my last post I promised to show some of the pictures I have made for the online shop but first I would like to share with you some pictures of commissions that got released in the meantime.

Stronghold Terrain asked me to sculpt some animals for a set they wanted for their line. These were really a challenge being so very tiny but against my own assumption I enjoyed sculpting them very much.



Find them beautifully painted here.


Mantic released the Green Lady:




But now onto the promised pictures of my own miniatures.
One week ago I visited my buddy Stefan in Olfen again and finished the production of the metal miniatures.
Though my miniature line is still somewhat small with only 15 items (and 7 of those being conversion bits) I have already cast a huge amount of white metal alloy to see the first batch done.

My miniatures are produced in the "classical way", which means spin casting a white metal alloy into silicone moulds.

Here it is the dwarfs. (Of course...^^)

 
All of my seven moulds in one picture. The very start and core of my miniature line, hopefully soon to grow...  ;-)

In the end pictures of the first two painted miniatures of my miniature line: The "Lansquenet Dwarf Bidenhänder Champion" and the "Lansquenet Dwarf Bidenhänder Musician".











In the coming days I will reveal more pictures of the painted miniatures so stay stuned. :-)


Cheerio,

Gregor

  4. Naaa... I have made so many forecasts and couldn't keep them, so I won't be giving an exact date.
    What I can tell you is, that I am very confident that they will be purchsable this year still.
    Today I will be in the city and see if I get my cards (the ones with the product information and warning notice) printed, so it is really in the final stages.
    The miniatures themselves are all cast and waiting to be bagged/blistered.
    Soon folks, soon...^^
